DIGITAL CONNECTION

If you have a SAT receiver DVD player or CD player with a digital output, you can make

use of an optical digital cable (not supplied) or coaxial digital cable (not supplied) to

carry the audio portion of the signal and enjoy Dolby Digital sound quality. One optical

or coaxial cable is needed for each SAT receiver, DVD player or CD player. When

optical or coaxial cable is used, the analog audio cables are still needed if recording

through a tape or VCR is desired. This receiver provides one optical and one coaxial

digital input for the connection of your components. Please connect your components

(e.g. DVD, SAT or CD) to the appropriate digital inputs and press DIGITAL INPUT to

select the corresponding digital input source.

Note: Optical and coax cables carry only the audio portion of the signal. A video

connection must also be established for a SAT receiver and DVD player. S-video

provides the best connection for the video portion of the signal. Composite video (yellow

RCA connector) can also be used. It is

important that the same type of cable (S-video or composite) that is connected from the

Home Theater to the TV is used to connect the SAT receiver or DVD player to the Home

Theater.

FRONT TERMINAL

Remark: If you have a video camera,

video game machine, or an extra

VCR, connect it to VAUX input at the

front of the receiver

DIGITAL INPUT

Connect components

capable of outputing Dolby

Digital (e.g. DVD or SAT) or

standard PCM (CD) format

digital signals. Read section

on "Input Signal Setting"

under "Advanced Sound

Control" carefully to adjust

the matching input settings.

If your CD player is equipped with digital optical jacks, use of optical cable is preferred.

What you need is just one more optical digital connecting cable (not supplied). Plug it in

the digital input jack of the receiver and select OPTICAL on the receiver setting (see

details on pg 20 chapter "Input Signal Setting"). You can enjoy better sound quality

brought to you by the optical cable. When optical cable is used, analog cables are still

needed for recording to tape output.

S-VIDEO

If your video component has a S-Video jack

included, you can make use of it to enjoy

enhanced video quality by connecting it to the

relevant S-Video jack at the rear side of the

receiver. One S-video cable is needed for each

component. When S-Video cable is used,

composite video (yellow RCA connector) cable

must also be connected for VCR recording.

Note: Before plugging in the optical cable or 

S-Video cable, make sure to match the shape of

the plug and jack, otherwise, you will not be able to

plug in completely.

Connecting the Speakers

Speakers

There are 6 speakers equipped with the unit (2 front,

1 center, 2 rear, 1 subwoofer). In order to enjoy good

surround effects, all six speakers need to be

connected to the receiver.

At least two front speakers (left and right) are

required. For better sound quality, Center speaker,

rear speakers and Subwoofer should also be

connected. Adding center and rear speakers will

enhance surround effects. Adding a Subwoofer will

increase bass response.

If you want to enjoy full range of sound effects, with

small speakers, it is a must to use the subwoofer with

the speakers to maintain adequate bass signal.

Speaker wires

1 for each speaker, is

needed for connection. Twist the stripped ends of

speaker cord about 2/3 inch (15 mm). Press down on

the tab to open the terminal and insert the wire.

Release tab to lock wire in the

terminal.

To ease speaker connections, the speaker wires and

the terminals are color-coded.

• White/Black (Front Left Speaker),

• Red/Black (Front Right Speaker),

• Green/Black (Center Speaker)

• Blue/Black (Rear Left Speaker).

• Grey/Black (Rear Right Speaker).

• Purple/Black (Subwoofer)

Connect the L, R speakers at the back of the speakers

to the corresponding color on the receiver. Do the

same for center (with green/black terminal), rear

speaker and the subwoofer (with purple/black termi-

nal).

Speaker Polarity

When connecting the speakers, make sure the polari-

ties (“+” speaker wire to “+” on the receiver) of

speaker wires and terminals are matched. If the wires

are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack

bass (“out of phase” effect).

Connecting the Subwoofer

Connect the subwoofer with the speaker wire (pur-

ple/ black) provided.

This receiver offers a high flexibility for user to use a

large variety of speakers and subwoofers. For more

information please refer to section “Fine Setting of

the Speakers” in “Advanced Sound Control” on page

21.

Getting Started

Positioning your speaker

1 Left, Right (Front Speakers)

They carry primarily music and sound effects

2 Center

In surround mode, the center speaker carries much of

the dialogue as well as music and effects. It should be

set between the left and right speakers.

3 Surround (Rear Speakers)

Their overall sound balance should be as close as pos-

sible to the front speakers. Proper placement is vital

to establish an evenly distributed sound field.

Subwoofer

A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful low

bass effects (explosions, the rumble of spaceships,

etc.) which dramatically heightens involvement with

the action on the screen. It is therefore recommend-

ed to connect subwoofers when small speakers are

used.

Magnetic shielding

Speakers placed less than two feet from the TV set

must be magnetically shielded in order to prevent

picture distortion. Front and center speakers provid-

ed with RT2350/RT2350BK/RT2600 are magnetically

shielded to protect your TV set.

It is not recommended to place the rear speakers

near the TV set.

Front Speaker Placement

Even if you can't duplicate this ideal home theater

setup exactly, the suggestions for speaker placement

that follow will help you get good results.

Alignment

Align the center speaker evenly with (A), or slightly

behind (B), the left and right speakers, but not ahead

of them.

Advanced Setting

Angle

Placing the left and right speakers to form a 45-

degree angle with your favorite viewing position will

duplicate the soundtrack mixer's perspective.

Height

The three speakers should be as close as possible to

the same height. This often requires placing the cen-

ter speaker directly atop (A) or beneath (B) the TV

set.

Courtesy Dolby Laboratories

Getting Started

Preferred surround placement

Location

If possible, place surround speakers to either side of

the listening area, not behind it.

Height

If space permits, install surrounds 2-3 feet above

viewers. This helps to minimize localization effects.

Aiming

Aiming surrounds straight across the room, not down

at viewers, helps create a more open, spacious sur-

round sound field.

Advanced Setting

Alternative Surround Placement

Rear wall

If rear wall mounting is the only choice, aim the

speakers at each other (A), towards the front (B) or

even towards the sidewalls (C, D). Experiment with

placement until surround sounds seem to envelop

you, rather than coming from behind you.

No adjacent walls

Surrounds can go on stands facing each other to

approximate the preferred sidewall mounting (A), or

to the sides or rear of the viewing area aimed

upwards. In the latter case, they can go right on the

floor, or preferably, a few feet off the floor such as

on end tables (B).

Courtesy Dolby Laboratories

Getting Started

Test Tone / Channel balance

Channel balance

Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator

for balancing the channels. As the signal "travels"

from channel to channel, adjust the level controls

until each channel plays at the same loudness level.

Level adjustment & surround channel level

expectation

Even though you adjust the surround channel to be

as loud as the others on the test signal, you'll find

that on actual program material the surround chan-

nel is usually much lower than the front. Don't be

tempted to readjust the surround level; program pro-

ducers use surround mostly for subtle atmospherics

and ambience, and only rarely for special effects. A

good surround mix doesn't call attention to itself; if

it did, it would soon become distracting.

Connecting for Power

Make sure you connect all your

other electronic components and

the speakers before plugging

your receiver into the outlet.

Plug the power cord in the wall

outlet, matching the wide blade

of the plug with the wide slot in

the outlet. Be sure to insert the

plug completely.

Using Headphones

To listen privately through your

audio system, use the PHONES jack

on the receiver. However, make

sure you turn down the volume

before you put on the head-

phones. Increase the volume to the

desired level after headphones are

in place.

Once headphones are connected, “HEADPHONE

DOWN MIX 2 CHANNEL” will scroll on display. This

feature automatically converts multi-channel speaker

outputs to 2 channel stereo for your listening pleas-

ure.

Hearing Comfort & Well-Being

• Do not play your headset at a high volume.

Hearing experts advise against continuous extended

play.

• If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce

volume or discontinue use.

Advanced Sound Control

Sound Enhancement Systems

This receiver is equipped with several built-in sound

enhancement systems.

Dolby Pro Logic II (RT2600 only)

The Pro Logic II mode uses the built-in circuit to steer the

Left, Center, Right and Surround left and right channel

audio signals and uses all five speakers to play both stereo

and Dolby Pro Logic program source, such as TV and VCR.

Dolby Pro Logic II includes Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby

Pro Logic II Music and Dolby Pro Logic.

Use this mode to suit the type of program (such as VCR).

Dolby Digital

The Dolby Digital mode lets you enjoy full digital

surround from software processed in the Dolby Digital

format. Dolby Digital provides better sound quality and

more powerful presence than conventional Dolby

Surround.

This unit is equipped with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel so

that you can enjoy enhanced full digital surround sound.

Being different from Dolby Pro Logic in which only four

channels ( Front Left, Front Right, Centre and Rear ) are

used, the new system provides stereo separation of the rear

speakers (Rear-Right, Rear-Left ). These 5 channels,

together with the subwoofer channel for bass sounds

(counted as 0.1 channel ), constitute as 5.1-Channel ( or 6

Channels ) Input for Dolby Digital that brings you the most

sophisticated sound enjoyment.

Digital Theater Systems (DTS) (RT2600 only)

DTS is a digital surround system which delivers six channels

of master-quality, 20-bit audio. It offers five full-range

channels plus a special low frequency effect (LFE) channel

for subwoofer, resulting commonly know 5.1 channels. It

can be applied with existing 5.1 speaker configurations.

DTS is available in DVD, SAT/CAB, TV and CD mode. (When

digital cable is connected)

Advanced Sound Control

Stereo

The Stereo mode uses the two main channel outputs

from the front speakers. Use this mode if you have

connected the front speakers only.

DSP (Digital Sound Processor)

These digital sound effects resemble sounds in a real

environment such as (STADIUM / THEATER / CONCERT /

CLUB / CHURCH / ARENA). DSP automatically converts

analog audio signals to digital ones which enables

you to adjust the sound without degrading the sound

quality. Different modes will give you different feel of

size and type of listening environment. (Not available

in Dolby Digital/DTS)

Night Mode

By using Dynamic Range Compression technology (pressing

OK), you can enjoy enhanced Dolby Digital sound quality at

night without interrupting your roommates or neighbors.

Night Mode will compress the difference in volume

between normal voices and sound like explosions, while still

enjoying a Dolby Digital enable component (DVD, SAT).

Night Mode can be activated by pressing the OK

button repeatedly until NORMAL appears on the display.

While Normal is still on the display, press the LEFT or RIGHT

Adjustment buttons on the remote control,around the OK

button, on the remote control until you select the desired

mode. There are three modes (NORMAL, SOFT, SOFTER) for

you to choose the extents of compression.

Fine Setting of the Components

The receiver has pre-selected surround mode once

you turn on the unit by pressing the Source Buttons

(like DVD, SAT, CD) directly. The default surround

modes for different components are listed in the

table below.

If you decide to change the surround mode, you can

Advanced Sound Control

Fine Setting of the Speakers

This receiver supports a wide range of speakers and

subwoofers. For optimal surround sound enjoyment,

you need to register the speaker selection settings of

your audio system. If you buy this receiver with

accompanied speaker package, then this step has

been done for you.

Also, to make the surround sound more effective and

suit the acoustic conditions in your listening room,

you need to delay the signal from some of the speak-

ers. Such channel delay compensates for center or

surround speakers that are closer to listening position

than the front speakers. You can make use of the

SETUP button to adjust the speakers’ relative loud-

ness.

The TEST TONE button

You can adjust the relative loudness of the individual

speakers by the TEST TONE button.

1. In Surround (Dolby Digital/Pro Logic/DTS) modes,

press TEST TONE briefly. A short noise will be heard

in the speakers one by one. The speaker having the

noise at that moment will be shown in the display.

2. To adjust the volume level of the test tone, turn

up/down the VOLUME knob or press VOL UP/DOWN

key on the remote control.

3. To adjust individual speaker volume level, press the

LEVEL key on the main unit when the short noise is

played on the speaker you want to adjust then turn

the VOLUME knob to modify the output level.

4. Press LEVEL again to save your setting.

5. Repeat step 3 to adjust other speaker volume lev-

els.

Displaying Program Formats

When a digital source is playing, the receiver will

automatically switch to the proper surround mode

and indicates on the speaker icons on the right-hand

side of the display. (See diagram)

It is important to note, however, that not all Dolby

Digital sources are encoded with the full complement

of five channels plus LFE*. Speaker icons show how

many and which speaker you have enabled (See “Fine

Setting of the Speakers”) and the letters inside the

speaker icons show which channel is present in the

source information. For example, the diagram shown

means you have all the five speakers and subwoofer

enabled and the digital sources you played have five

channels plus LFE complemented.

* LFE stands for Low Frequency Effect. The indication

“LFE” appears if the digital source contains LFE infor-

mation. In this case, the bass signal will be delivered

to the subwoofer, offering more dynamic deep bass

sound effects. If the letter is flashing, the signal is

either too weak or just gone.
